Lots of BHs

[Cheshirista]

Hi ladies,

Just tried phoning my midwife, but can't get hold of anyone, so thought I'd ask here instead.

Since yesterday afternoon, every time I'm doing something, whether it's walking my dogs or just loading the dishwasher and doing laundry etc, I've noticed that I'm getting Braxton Hicks quite regularly, like every 5-6 mins. They stop when I sit down for a bit and then start up again as soon as I do something.

Is this anything to worry about? Am I ok to exercise and stuff? Anyone else had similar experience?

Cheers,
x

some women get loads of BH so women get none - i'm the former. i cant standa up from my desk or my sofa at home without a BH hitting. i get them in bed, while walking, swimming etc

i have done since around 20 weeks.

mine are painless, just uncomfortable. if they do get painfull then start timing otherwise dont worry about them - all part of the wonders of pregnancy
